US Representative Michael E. Capuano, who decried violent political rhetoric after last month’s shooting of his Democratic colleague, Gabrielle Giffords, used some belligerent language of his own at a union rally in Boston yesterday.

"Every once in a while you need to get out on the streets and get a little bloody when necessary,” Capuano told about 1,000 union workers who were protesting Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker at a raucous rally outside the State House.

If the former than I agree totally we shouldn't give a single inch of ground and should fight the Right with all we can muster, however I fear that literal violence even if it is deserved will only serve to harm our cause.

Don't you remember? IT DOESN'T MATTER IF HE WAS SPEAKING LITERALLY OR FIGURATIVELY. One of you LEFT WING LOONS will take what is said and cause a riot or kill someone or something. Then you ALL WILL BE GUILTY AND SHOULD BE CHARGED WITH A CRIME. Right? (heavy, heavy mocking here)

Liberals have long lost any credibility that they might have ever had. They wonder why people pay them no attention other than to mock them.

One good thing.....after this liberals can yell and scream all they want about "civility" but they have lost all credibility on the issue.

They can yell and scream all they want about how conservatives are "obstructionists" when they vote no on liberals pet bills, or filibuster by voting to not allow a vote on a bill but after defending their politicians choice to RUN AWAY rather than vote they have lost all credibility.

These are issues many people are watching because having kids out of school has caught the attention of most people.

US Representative Michael E. Capuano, who decried REPUBLICAN CONSERVATIVE OR TEA PARTY political rhetoric after last month’s shooting of his Democratic colleague, Gabrielle Giffords, used some belligerent language of his own at a union rally in Boston yesterday.

The problem with telling union goons to "get bloody" is that to them, it isn't a figure of speech. Today a demonstrator from the Communications Workers of America assaulted Tabitha Hale of Freedom Works:
